‘That’s what I think he said also , Latu next please

You guys seem to have private meetings or videos with Flanno or his offsider and its theres common ground reached.

We demand the rogue player fronts the side and meets his victims.

The boys he left behind in the trenches.

Angry faces that will haunt him every night.

I hope the days of clubs being players bitches are over.

No more Zacs
No more Hunts
Clubs have had enough
Of selfish .........

Really pleasing as he had suitors.

He’s a very promising footballer imo.

Totally agree. I'm not gonna write him off, but let Ciraldo actually win something before he's even remotely in the discussion for being a 'supercoach'. I mean, it took them signing Burton, Addo-Carr (at the time), Kikau, Crichton, Curran, Mahoney and Mann before they even remotely looked like making the top 8 just to bow out against Manly in the first week.

And yes, the Dogs are 5-0 to start this year, but we've also been April premiers a number of times. I also haven't seen anything from them yet that reaaaally shows me that they'll actually win this year, not to mention that they haven't actually played any teams that are even in the conversation for top 4.

Great post. Exactly this. The flogs haven't won a damn thing yet. Ciraldo's been handed a team capable of multiple titles to him on a gold plate but he's still got his learners plates on. We'll see.

Anyone know what's happening with Latu is he more likely to stay with us or leave?

Apparently , according to the rugby league know all the Mole he has been poached by the Tigers ! In return we are receiving some young chap by the name of Galvin Klein .

This is great news but there is no mention of it on the website, only a passing comment from the coach in a pre-match presser.

Very Dargons indeed...

Coach was asked why the group was celebrating and all getting around LKT and whether it meant he was playing tonight. Flano said no, I was just telling the group he's re-signed for a couple more years. Announcement I'm sure will be in due course, the club is slow, but there's no need to worry. He's staying.

Its good that some of our juniors are at least showing some integrity and believe they can take the club further. Lets hope Latu has the same attitude

I hope your right mate.

Yeah Jak, as with Galvin, its the managers you have to control, if LKT had Isaac Moses as his manager then I'm sure we would be talking about something different.

Always looking forward to being back with you guys Jak, and the constant headache of being a Dragons fan

Excellent post.

Thanks Ronnie. I might jag one in per decade.

Weve all seen the balance shift to the players over a long time.

And its kind of antithetical to fan interests because we support clubs.

So i see it as an evening up of sorts, but a long way to go.

Usually the player gets his way and we feel ripped off.

To their credit our players are not crapping on with player rights and joining in with the victim mantra.

When Lomax started supporting Hunt during the fracas, it made me feel sick.

Ivan Cleary has been battling greedy players for years and whilst hes been diplomatic, in the detail, hes been quite sympathic to the club and fan positiln to date.

We had the molo affair and he joins another club straight away. No time out or rehab. Its a lend.

I understand real issues, i adore most of our players, but balance and fairness must be taken into account.

for our age bracket justa the good times outweigh the bad, my dad or my grandfather or both started taking my brother and myself 73 years ago, 76 for my brother and would not change a moment of the time spent with all three, I must admit 1975 was a little hard to take.

I've been alive for 9 grand final wins. I can go anytime and be happy. I was overseas in 1975, so that game does not exist.

The doc increased the strength of the meds jak. I went to him complaining about the frequency of the headaches I have been having of late .

And Ethel is doing just fine thank you - although she still moans about the lawn mowing although I say that it is good for your fitness she still complains , damn if I can work the woman out ?

Why is it so?

We have half priced 6 and 7 and still can't afford a marquee prop.

Money isnt the problem
Availability and willing to move is the problem
